History ShoutOut / QuentinTarantino

* ''Milano calibro 9'' (1972, Fernando Di Leo) - The torture scene in Tarantino's film references the opening sequence.

* ''Black Sabbath'' (1963, Creator/MarioBava) - The three-story plot of ''Pulp Fiction'' was inspired by the three-story plot of Black Sabbath. Director Mario Bava is namechecked in the form of a type of heroin named Bava.

* ''Eastern Condors'' (1987, Creator/SammoHung) - Music can be heard from 'Eastern Condors' when Sgt. Donowitz and PFC Omar kill Hitler's guards.

* ''Les vampires'' (1915, Creator/LouisFeuillade) - Posters of the Les Vampires serial are hanging in the office where Landa confronts Bridget.

* ''The Bells of Death'' (1968, Creator/GriffinYuehFeng) - At the beginning of this particular film, three antagonists raid a village, killing the protagonist's family. However, the bandits raid a cottage, from which the protagonist's mother attempts to retreat across the field. The main antagonist takes aim at her with a bow and arrow, which plays out strikingly similar to the opening scene when Col. Hans Landa aims his pistol at Shoshanna; apart from the fact that this guy actually shoots the woman. Also, immediately after the antagonist shoots her, he and his cronies hear the other family members hiding beneath the floorboards and take the similarity a step further by executing one of them through the floor; just as Col. Hans Landa did to Shoshanna's family.

* ''The Deserter'' (1971, Creator/NiksaFulgosi & Creator/BurtKennedy) - Aldo Raine assembles a team of men and trains them to kill Nazis in the style of an Apache resistance, in the same fashion as Capt. Victor Caleb.

* ''Death Rides a Horse'' (1967, Creator/GiulioPetroni) - The theme of this movie is played when the Bride calls out O-Ren Ishii. When the Bride sees one of her killers and the camera zooms in on her eyes and the picture is tinted red also happens with its protagonist.

* ''Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell'' (1968, Creator/HajimeSato) - The orange/red sky in the model shots of the jet airliner that the Bride arrives in Japan on is a pretty clear visual reference to this film.

* ''Samurai Fiction'' (1998, Creator/HiroyukiNakano) - The sequence where the Bride fights behind the blue-screen and we can see her silhouette, is a reference to the opening of 'Samurai Fiction'.
* ''Samurai Reincarnation'' (1981, Creator/KinjiFukasaku) - The line: "If you encounter God, God will be cut."

* ''Film/ReservoirDogs'' - Earl [=McGraw=] refers to the "Massacre at Two Pines" as a "kill-crazy rampage", the same term Mr. White uses to describe Mr. Blonde's shooting during the jewelry heist.

* ''Film/TheKiller'' (1989, Creator/JohnWoo) - At one point, a character laments that people have watched the film too often, resulting in many would-be criminals buying .45 pistols when a different gun would be better suited.

* ''Film/TheKiller'' (1989, Creator/JohnWoo) - Django shoots Moguy and then leaps against his body backwards as he propels himself into the foyer, shooting two cowboys while falling on Moguy's corpse. This exact stunt/move is lifted directly from ''The Killer'', where Creator/ChowYunFat uses it to enter a room (and kill two Mooks) during the opening gunfight.

* ''Film/DieHard'' (1988, Creator/JohnMcTiernan): Just before the home invasion goes south, Cliff is held at gunpoint by Tex and they speak briefly, leading to them sharing a good laugh, just as happened when Hans Gruber had John [=McClane=] at gunpoint in the climax of ''Die Hard''.

* ''Film/TheDeerHunter'' (1978, Creator/MichaelCimino) - Creator/ChristopherWalken's role as a Vietnam veteran alludes to his Oscar-winning role from this film.
